Titans: First trailer features dark Robin and some saucy language – SDCC

The first trailer for upcoming DC TV series Titans has finally landed online, and if you like your superheroes dark and gritty then this one’s for you!

We’ll let you watch the trailer for yourself to get a sense of the tone, but the show stars Brenton Thwaites as Dick Grayson aka Robin as he works with fellow powered youths, Batman or no Batman.

No matter how this turns out, it’s going to be interesting just to a live-action Robin on screen who isn’t tied to his more famous sidekick. This trailer, if nothing else, is pretty clear where it stands on that issue.

Titans will be available on DC’s brand new streaming service, which will also introduce Doom Patrol and Swamp Thing to the masses. In the US, this will set viewers back $74.99 per year, or $7.99 per month. No word yet on how the UK might get their eyeballs on it.
